Loei Airport

[happyaussie]

Can anyone advise on domestic flights to and from Bangkok to Loei? I heard one small airline began twice week services and was wondering if anyone had more info. I'm planning on visiting in January.

From the Tourism Authority of Thailand website:

There is no direct flight from Bangkok to Loei, although travelers may fly Thai Airways International from Bangkok to Phetchabun, Udon Thani or Khon Kaen or fly Air Asia from Bangkok to Udon Thani. Then continue the trip to Loei by bus.

I think you'll find that link is out of date. Nok has resumed flights to Loei.

I just checked their website, appears you are correct. In January, they have one return flight on Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday.

As previous mentioned there are 3 flights a week by NOK. I taken the flights both ways and they were fully booked.
